It’s an exciting time to be involved with social media and technology here in Detroit. We are now home to some of the most engaging and interactive conferences in the Midwest. The regular social media meetups and tweetups are attracting large groups of like-minded individuals on a consistent basis. Our numbers are growing and everyone is hungry for more.
However, with all of this activity, there hasn’t been a team in place dedicated to rallying the troops and spearheading the efforts behind uniting and growing our community.
To address this problem, a few of us decided that working together was far more constructive than operating independently. By pooling our resources, experience and talent, we could take Detroit’s social media and tech community to the next level.
The result of this combination: iDetroit
Think of us as a community exercise. A group with big hopes and ideas for Metro Detroit.
What you can expect from iDetroit:
- Valuable events and conferences designed to connect Detroit’s tech and social media community.
- A hub where you can learn about the region’s latest happenings.
- The promotion of events organized outside of iDetroit.
- Honest feedback and reviews of other local events.
- Opportunities to get involved and help shape the future of Detroit’s social media and tech scene.
What we need from you:
- Feedback.
- Suggestions.
- Comments.
- Participation.
What you’ll start to see is many of the local events you regularly attend flying under the iDetroit name. We want everyone to know that these gatherings are part of something bigger.
Our goal is to become the most active force within Detroit’s social media and tech community. We can’t accomplish this without your help.
While we have big plans for iDetroit, we are just getting started. We hope you’ll join us for the ride.
